    Sean you are a man’s man when it comes to teachers. Don’t tell my boss, but 6ish if the 9 hours when I’m at work is spent hiding behind carts in a warehouse consuming your content to better myself. I’m 21 years into playing guitar & still learning, I pray my thirst for knowledge never ceases.

    Ok so I loved this video and started mixing up the counts between the cords and it sounded really nice. Doing a 7 count and then spltiing the next 7 count over the next 2 cords. I only started playing once I retired at 66 as something to keep my mind going, not the greatest guitar player but I discovered your lessons and they unlocked a lot of things for me. ( I did take lessons for 1.5yrs found out my instructor was in a metal band back in the 70/80's, saw a few of their music videos online)

I really respect you for your life journey and really appreciate you sharing your life with us. Hoping your female vocalist friends can rejoin you from time to time, as the songs you all make are so nice. Best of luck in LA!

    I love and only play Elixir light strings on my Martin GPCX2E. I used to play a long time ago but had to take 16 years off because my wife got Daily Persistent Migraines the night she gave birth to our 1st son. 16 years later I’m play again at age 48. I’m not putting this guitar down again and only use Elixir strings now and the 4 years I played before my hiatus

    So ironic. This past week while driving to and from work while listening to the radio, I was figuring out the time signatures to different songs. Some easy, some not. Like, Tool, Soundgarden or some VH songs.

    Great lesson, Sean, and very timely for me, as I've been trying to teach myself more rhythm playing. One follow-up question - if you were to set up simple drum patterns to accompany these five strumming exercises, how would you set them up? Just put the kicks and snares on the strummed beats, or are there more elegant (perhaps?) approaches?

    • @seandaniel23
      @seandaniel23  Рік тому +2

      Great question. Setting up a drum beat you'd definitely want to program accent with the kick and snare to match the vibe. Might have to do a video on this!

    Hey Sean Quick question. If you were going to play lead over that, what key would you be thinking.. Thanks!

  • @mp3o
    @mp3o Рік тому

    Stopped using picks awhile back, so the whole triplet thing is simplified by: [open fingers strum, thumb strum, close fingers strum]. Less confusion re. downbeat stroke direction. Still, not a bad thing to practice switching, for example when breaking 4/4 up as: [tripolet, tripolet, tripolet, 4, &] ("sun sun sun here it comes"). Especially when carrying over two measures: [tripolet, tripolet, tripolet, tripo], [let, tripolet, tripolet, 7, &, 8, &]. If you want that strong bass note on 1, change up the order: [thumb strum, close fingers strum, open fingers strum], to avoid digit collisions. Shout out to Mother Maybelle, and flamenco players!

    One other small tip here is to mute all the strings and get the strumming patterns and timing down before you form actual chords. Especially chords you may not be familiar enough with up the neck to grab and play in time without some practice. Also it is helpful to practice with a metronome so one doesn’t speed up while playing.

  • @backcountrybrian9336
    @backcountrybrian9336 Рік тому +1

    I am certain this is a dumb question but would you play those different counts in the same 4/4 timing as the rest of the band/song? Or are you saying that the song would need to be in a "matched" timing? I'm new to music but love learning so forgive my ignorance. I never had music in school.

    • @mrjasondylan
      @mrjasondylan Рік тому

      The song would have to be in that timing otherwise the timing would be all out of sync.

    After some beers... Tip: It's best to use a very simple chord progression to illustrate strumming patterns. In fact, it's difficult to concentrate on strumming if you still have to think about how to make the chords.

    Does it feel good to be back in Florida? I live in San Diego. I’m from Tucson though. I went to Stetson for law school in St. Pete. That’s a cool area. Good luck on your bicoastal endeavor. You should make enough to keep living in LA with your guitar income. I’m looking to be in South Florida part of the time because I like the area. I have a J.D. but I’m not an attorney, so I don’t have that attorney money coming in. LOL

    Syncopation - Music Theory Academy
    Syncopation Definition. Syncopation is the accenting of a note which would usually not be accented. Syncopation is often described as being off beat. The time signature of a piece of music gives an indication of a regular pattern of strong and weak beats. A syncopated rhythm goes against this pattern by putting the accent on weak beats.. Let me explain through a worked example.
